Halloween Hangover Blondies Recipes

CANDY BAR BLONDIES

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 or 9-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray . Line with parchment paper, leaving two flaps hanging over the edges of the pan. Lightly grease the parchment paper. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together browned butter and sugar. Mixture will be grainy. That's ok.
• Whisk in egg and beat by hand until mixture is slightly pale, about 2 minutes. Whisk in vanilla extract.
• In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add all at once to the butter and sugar mixture. Stir until just incorporated. Mixture will be fairly thick. Fold in 1/2 cup of chopped candy.
• Spread batter into prepared pan. Top with remaining candy. Bake for 20 to 27 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the center of the brownies comes out clean. Brownies will be golden brown and appear dry across the top.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before removing from the pan and slicing into 9 pieces. Brownies will keep, well wrapped at room temperature, for up to 4 days. They're very popular as offerings to neighbors.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 9 x 9-inch baking pan with nonstick foil, leaving enough overhang to help you lift the blondies from the pan when they're done. Set aside.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Whisk melted butter and brown sugar together in a medium bowl until combined. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well.
• Using a rubber spatula, fold dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined; do not over-mix.
• Fold in the candy bar pieces and spread the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with an offset spatula.
• Push in a few chocolate chips on top of the dough to garnish, if desired.
• Bake until the top is shiny, cracked, and light golden brown, 27-30 minutes; do not over-bake. Immediately after removing from the oven, push in a few more chocolate chips and/or M&M's on top of the dough to garnish, if desired.
• Cool on a wire rack to room temperature. Remove bars from pan using foil and cut to serve.
